As summer wound down, the kids were getting more and more antsy. So, I was looking for a way to keep them entertained. Since the free movies had ended, we decided to have a drive in movie - in our game room. As I got everything ready, I sent the kids upstairs to make a "car" to watch the movie in. Emily's was my favorite - notice the wheels and the steering wheel taped to the outside!
Then I gave each kid $10 in monopoly money.
We set up a snack/lunch table and each kid used their money to buy whatever they wanted.
And then we watched the movie! The kids had a blast and it was a great time filler for a slow summer day!

I love your tweaks! What a fun mom you are. :)
This is way stinking fun. But I am worried that you made the signs so cutsie for this activity. You rock sis.
You are amazing Honey! Our children are so blessed!
That last comment was from me...Jon.
Oh my stars - that is ADORABLE! I'm totally stealing the idea now (but I don't have the "magic" touch, so it won't look so cute). Did you have any kid try to spend all $10 on candy? (:
What a cool idea! I'll need to have more kids to make our drive-in more cost effective.
Jon, you AND the kids are so lucky to have Aubrey.
Aubrey, thanks for raising the motherhood bar...AGAIN!!!
